Description
The OWL2pe is a data logger built around the BASIC stamp 2pe. It includes digital and analog i/o, battery backed real time clock, power supplies, 512k memory for data logging, and protection for the i/o pins. The core OWL2pe can be used either on its own or as the core module to plug into a larger terminal board.
The OWL2pe is often used with a breakout board. The breakout board either plugs into the top of the OWL2pe core or the OWL2pe core can plug in on top of a larger terminal board. The OWL2pe and our smallest topboard fits in a 2" x 2.5" x 1.25" Rose enclosure with terminals on 0.1" spacing.
